IBIS Riverside is my favorite place to stay while in Bangkok. This is a very popular and busy hotel. . As most of the hotels along the river are. It’s always booked up.
• The staff are efficient, knowledgeable, helpful, kind and just genuinely friendly.
•The garden, patio areas, and pool area, as well as the view of the river is surprising to find in a budget hotel.
•The hotel is within walking distance to the ferry boat to take you to one of the main piers/ Sathorn Pier. From there you’ll be able to use various boats to take you to all the major attractions along the Chao Phraya River. The MRTtrain is located there too.
•I’d recommend paying extra for the breakfast buffet at the hotel. it’s very good with an amazing variety of choices. I always choose to eat on the patio by the river.
•The rooms are basic, but clean and comfortable with cold AC, and plenty of hot water.
•The rooms with a view of the river and gardens are my favorite rooms.
